7 MAGICAL STEPS YAW FORMULA MAGNUS OPUS
noun Size, greatness, largeness, magnitude, bulkiness, hugeness, bigness, grandeur, dignity, fortune, richness; power, elevation.
JUPITER BLACK WORK* Dissolution, Interiora, Disintegration, Decentralization, fragmentation. The action of formally ending or dismissing an assembly, partnership, or official body.
MARS WHITE WORK* Separation, A separation process is a method that converts a mixture or a solution of chemical substances into two or more distinct product mixtures, a scientific process of separating two or more substance in order to obtain purity. Separations exploit differences in chemical properties or physical properties (such as size, shape, mass, density, or chemical affinity) between the constituents of a mixture. A separation can be analytical: to identify the size of each fraction of a mixture is attributable to each component without attempting to harvest the fractions.
Terra, (dry land; the ground as distinct from the sea or air. The mother of the Titans as in the Greek. Gia, to distinguish the planet from the soil covering part of it.) "they needed to rest themselves on terra firma".
SUN WHITE WORK* Conjunction. Conjugation of artificial humic acids with inorganic soil matter. Rectify Inflection of rectificō (third-person plural futur active imperative) of rectific of say I rectify, regulate, control.1. ուղղում 2. զտում.
VENUS RED WORK* Fermentation, Inveniens Archaic, agitation a state of excitement. Modern, chemistry, the breakdown of a substance by bacteria, yeasts, or other microorganisms, typically involving effervescence and the giving off of heat. The fermentation process involved in the making of beers, wines, and spirits, in which sugars are converted to ethyl alcohol is a process at least 10,000 years old. Latin Inveniens; (inveniens,-ientis) to come, or light upon, find; to find out, discover, to find, meet with, come upon, like in Greek Eurika, an excited cry of joy or satisfaction when one finds or discovers something. from Greek heurēka ‘I have found it’ (from heuriskein ‘find’), said to have been uttered by Archimedes when he hit upon a method of determining the purity of gold.
MERCURY RED WORK* Distillation, Distillation is the process of separating the components of a liquid mixture through selective evaporation and condensation. The basis of separation is the difference in the vapor pressures (volatilities) of the respective components. Dry distillation is the heating of solid materials to produce gaseous products (which may condense into liquids or solids); this may involve chemical changes such as destructive distillation or cracking. Occultism,Black Art, exorcism, purification, expulsion.
MOON RED WORK* Coagulation. Lapidum, Coagulation is a process of aggregation or accumulation of colloidal particles to settle down as a precipitate. And this stone, which I have set for a pillar, shall be God's house, a milestone, a boundary stone, gravestone, tombston, Lapis Manalis in Latin "stone of manes" covers the gate of Hades or underworld, a stone platform at a slave auction, a statue, (poetic) jewel, precious stone.

Sanskrit prosody and metrics have a deep history of taking into account moraic weight, as it were, rather than straight syllables, divided into laghu (लघु, "light") and dīrgha/guru (दीर्घ/गुरु, "heavy") feet based on how many morae can be isolated in each word.[citation needed] Thus, for example, the word kartṛ (कर्तृ), meaning "agent" or "doer", does not contain simply two syllabic units, but contains rather, in order, a dīrgha/guru foot and a laghu foot. The reason is that the conjoined consonants rt render the normally light ka syllable heavy.
During much of the past century, it was widely believed that phonemes—the human speech sounds that constitute words—have no inherent semantic meaning, and that the relationship between a combination of phonemes (a word) and its referent is simply arbitrary. Although recent work has challenged this picture by revealing psychological associations between certain phonemes and particular semantic contents, the precise mechanisms underlying these associations have not been fully elucidated.
A word is formulaic it combines two or more say inherent emotional quality of a human speech sound another speech sound thus creating an apparition in between. When you know the value of one quality and the value of the other, you can find the meaning alluded to in accordance with the formula.
Thus the meaning of a word formulaically is in origin constructed as in a digraph, or a paradox, or as in a triangulation, a trigraph or tetragraph, pentagraph etc. Meaning, like an apparition is conjured up in our mind. Like from a of a shadow appears an inner vision, which once associated with an external visual representation of what the word was alluding to becomes a fixed, permanent phonetic/speech representation, of the idea or thing. Forever potent, powerful, real and true for its purpose.
A paradox can be a seemingly absurd or contradictory/complimentary combinations of elementals, phonemes, syllables, words, statement or proposition which when 'investigated' and the in between discovered prove to be if well founded, real and or true.At origin the formula lends itself to the uncertainty principle which can lead the receiver to all sorts of paradoxical visions, like for example particles being in two places at once.
A word like a statement with logical reasoning from acceptable premises, can still lead to a conclusion that seems unacceptable when contradictory, like for example a word or a thing that combines contradictory features or qualities.
This brings us to the problem of universals which is an ancient question from metaphysics that has inspired a range of philosophical topics and disputes: Should the properties an object has in common with other objects, such as color and shape, be considered to exist beyond those objects? And if a property exists separately from objects, what is the nature of that existence?
Understanding how different individual entities (or particulars) can in some sense have some of the same properties is the basis of and the problem of universals.
The problem of universals relates to various inquiries closely related to metaphysics, logic, and epistemology, as far back as Plato and Aristotle, in efforts to define the mental connections a human makes when they understand a property such as shape or color to be the same in nonidentical objects. As an example, if all cup holders are circular in some way, circularity may be considered a universal property of cup holders.
An object of the mind is an object that exists in the imagination, but which, in the real world, can only be represented or modeled. Some such objects are abstractions, literary concepts, or fictional scenarios.Concepts are defined as abstract ideas. They are understood to be the fundamental building blocks of the concept behind principles, thoughts and beliefs.[1] They play an important role in all aspects of cognition.[2][3] As such, concepts are studied by several disciplines, such as linguistics, psychology, and philosophy, and these disciplines are interested in the logical and psychological structure of concepts, and how they are put together to form thoughts and sentences.
Abstraction in its main sense is a conceptual process wherein general rules and concepts are derived from the usage and classification of specific examples, literal ("real" or "concrete") signifiers, first principles, or other methods.t
Conceptualization' the action or process of forming a concept or idea of something.
"An abstraction" is the outcome of this process—a concept that acts as a common noun for all subordinate concepts and connects any related concepts as a group, field, or category.
A word of power like a magical formula is said or believed to have specific supernatural effects. These are words whose meaning illustrates principles and degrees of understanding that are often difficult to relay using other forms of speech or writing. Through the medium of a speech sound or a word which is the most concise means to communicate very abstract information or phrase one can have a supernatural effect.
These words often appear to have no intrinsic meaning in and of themselves. However, when deconstructed, each individual letter or syllable or sound may refer to some universal concept found in the original system in which the formula appears. Additionally, in grouping certain letters together one is able to display meaningful sequences that are considered to be of value. Value in meaningful speech and especially when used within the spiritual system that utilizes them (e.g., spiritual hierarchies, historiographic data, or psychological stages).
Today a formula's potency is understood and made usable by magician through prolonged meditation on its levels of meaning. Once these have been internalized any person can then utilize the formula to maximum effect.cthe action or process of forming a concept or idea of something.
Since most of these per-mutative arrangements have their origin in Hermetic Qabalah, many of the formulae listed below can be best understood by using various techniques of Hebrew Kabbalah such as gematria (or isopsephy), temurah, and notariqon to analyze them.
Om (or Aum) (listen (help·info); Sanskrit: ॐ, ओम्, romanized: Ōṃ) is a sacred sound, syllable, mantra, or an invocation in Hinduism.[1][2] Om is the prime symbol of Hinduism.[3][4] It is variously said to be the essence of the supreme Absolute,[2] consciousness[5][6][7], Atman, Brahman, or the cosmic world.[8][9][10] In Indian traditions, Om serves as a sonic representation of the divine, a standard of Vedic authority and a central aspect of soteriological doctrines and practices.[11] The syllable is often found at the beginning and the end of chapters in the Vedas, the Upanishads, and other Hindu texts.
THELMATIC MAGIC
The word thelema is the English transliteration of the Koine Greek noun θέλημα (pronounced [θelima]), "will", from the verb θέλω (thélō): "to will, wish, want or purpose."He associated Thelemic spiritual practice with concepts rooted in occultism, yoga, and Eastern and Western mysticism, especially the Qabalah.
- "Every man and every woman is a star"[50] is a reference to the body of light,[51] said by Plato to be composed of the same substance as the stars;[52] and that persons doing their Wills are thereby like stars in the universe: occupying a time and position in space, yet distinctly individual and having an independent nature largely without undue conflict with other stars.[citation needed]
- "Love is the law, love under will",[53] i.e. the nature of the Law of Thelema is love, but love itself is subsidiary to finding and manifesting one's authentic purpose or mission.
- Crowley defined magick as "the Science and Art of causing Change to occur in conformity with Will",[82] and spelled it with a 'k' to distinguish it from stage magic. He recommended magick as a means for discovering the True Will.[83] Generally, magical practices in Thelema are designed to assist in finding and manifesting the True Will, although some include celebratory aspects as well.[84] Crowley believed that after discovering the True Will, the magician must also remove any elements of himself that stand in the way of its success
The Thelemic pantheon—a collection of gods and goddesses who either literally exist or serve as symbolic archetypes or metaphors—includes a number of deities, primarily a trio adapted from ancient Egyptian religion, who are the three narrators or "speakers" of The Book of the Law: Nuit, Hadit, and Ra-Hoor-Khuit. In at least one instance, Crowley described these deities as a "literary convenience".
For both symbolic and numerological reasons, Aleister Crowley adapted aum into a Thelemic magical formula, AUMGN, adding a silent 'g' (as in the word 'gnosis') and a nasal 'n' to the m to form the compound letter 'MGN'; the 'g' makes explicit the silence previously only implied by the terminal 'm' while the 'n' indicates nasal vocalisation connoting the breath of life and together they connote knowledge and generation. Together these letters, MGN, have a numerological value of 93, a number with polysemic significance in Thelema. Om appears in this extended form throughout Crowley's magical and philosophical writings, notably appearing in the Gnostic Mass. Crowley discusses its symbolism briefly in section F of Liber Samekh and in detail in chapter 7 of Magick (Book 4).[138][139][140][141]
Greetings
The number 93 is of great significance in Thelema.[99] The central philosophy of Thelema is in two phrases from Liber AL: "do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the law" and "love is the law, love under will". Crowley urged their use in everyday communications, and himself used them to greet people.[100] Today, rather than using the full phrases, Thelemites often use numerological abbreviations to shorten these greeting in informal contexts, a practice Crowley also applied in his informal written correspondences.[100] The two primary terms in these statements are 'will' and 'love', respectively. Using the Greek technique of isopsephy, which applies a numerical value to each letter, the letters of words thelema ('will') and agape ('love') each sum to 93:
- Thelema: Θελημα = 9 + 5 + 30 + 8 + 40 + 1 = 93
- Agapé: Αγαπη = 1 + 3 + 1 + 80 + 8 = 93
In this way, the first phrase is abbreviated to "93" while the second is abbreviated to "93 93/93", with the division "93/93" symbolising love "under" will.[
These holy days are usually observed on the following dates:[98]
- March 20. The Feast of the Supreme Ritual, which celebrates the Invocation of Horus, the ritual performed by Crowley on this date in 1904 that inaugurated the New Aeon.
- March 20/March 21. The Equinox of the Gods, which is commonly referred to as the Thelemic New Year (although some celebrate the New Year on April 8). Although the equinox and the Invocation of Horus often fall on the same day, they are often treated as two different events. This date is the Autumnal equinox in the Southern Hemisphere.
- April 8 through April 10. The Feast of the Three Days of the Writing of the Book of the Law. These three days are commemorative of the three days in the year 1904 during which Aleister Crowley wrote The Book of the Law. One chapter was written each day, the first being written on April 8, the second on April 9, and the third on April 10. Although there is no official way of celebrating any Thelemic holiday, this particular feast day is usually celebrated by reading the corresponding chapter on each of the three days, usually at noon.
- June 20/June 21. The Summer solstice in the Northern Hemisphere and the Winter solstice in the Southern Hemisphere.
- August 12. The Feast of the Prophet and His Bride. This holiday commemorates the marriage of Aleister Crowley and his first wife Rose Edith Crowley. Rose was a key figure in the writing of The Book of the Law.
- September 22/September 23. The Autumnal equinox in the Northern Hemisphere and the Vernal Equinox in the Southern Hemisphere.
- December 21/December 22. The Winter solstice in the Northern Hemisphere and the Summer Solstice in the Southern Hemisphere.
- The Feast for Life, celebrated at the birth of a Thelemite and on birthdays.
- The Feast for Fire/The Feast for Water. These feast days are usually taken as being when a child hits puberty and steps unto the path of adulthood. The Feast for Fire is celebrated for a male, and the Feast for Water for a female.
- The Feast for Death, celebrated on the death of a Thelemite and on the anniversary of their death. Crowley's Death is celebrated on December 1.
